| সংক্ষিপ্ত: | The aim of this paper is to examine Europe-related literary prizes (ELPs) in Poland through empirical analysis. Polish ELPs are those prizes which are organized by Polish entities or addressed to Polish society and have a European agenda. A list of 13 such prizes has been created and analyzed along four axes: 1) the importance of its reference to Europe and European culture, 2) the role of literature in its scope, 3) its geocultural reach, and 4) its organizational setting. The analysis revealed that 1) the growth of the ELPs scene in Poland increased significantly with the country’s accession to the European Union in 2004, 2) the prizes – although following a European program – are primarily aimed at authors from Central and Eastern Europe and that this geocultural tilt 3) does not correspond with the orientation of the Polish book market (and thus with the reading preferences of Poles). |
